You and I could run away And find a place I'll hide someday But I wouldn't blame you if you wanted more So let's pretend it's just you and me here The town we're in can disappear We'll grab the sheets And build ourselves a fort And we'll watch the rain fall And sit up on a roof Cause it's a perfect night to Be here in our youth! ♪ The stress has got the best of me A party's all I really need Let's make the calls And meet at someone's pad The friends are good The booze is too I'll finally sit and talk to you And find all the things in common that we had Tomorrow we'll talk about the things We wish we didn't do But it's a perfect night to Be here in our youth! ♪ And I've heard There will come a time In our lives When our worth Is measured In gold and dimes But when young is just another word For reckless and amused It's a perfect night to Be here in our youth! ♪ So raise your cup Let's not regret The things we never did or said It's strange to think That it won't be this for long! So make a toast Don't brag or boast No decency is for the old We're learning what is right And that we're wrong And we'll measure our success By the bottles we go through Cause it's a perfect night to Be here in our youth! It's a perfect night to be here in our youth! It's a perfect night to be here in our youth!
